Answer:
Let x be the number of left handed female students and let y be the number of left handed male students.
Then the number of right handed female students will be 5x and the number of right handed male students will be 9y. Since the total number of left handed students is 18 and the total number of right handed students is 122, the following system of equations must be satisfied.
x+y=18 and 5x+9y=122
Solving this system gives x=10 and y=8.
Thus, 50 of the 122 right handed students are female. Therefore, the probability that a right handed student selected at random is female is the fraction 50/122
which to the nearest thousandth is 0.410.
T is average time spend by shoppers in minutes

Answer:
-77
Step-by-step explanation:
-77 + -23 = -100
To write the number is standard form we need to move the decimal point six times to the right, then:
therefore the answer is b.
<span>(a) $7.04
(b) 704/1599
(c) 0.44
(d) 14
(e) $98.56
(a) How much profit does Lucy earn when she sells a necklace?
Since the problem states that her profit is the sale price minus the cost of materials and labor, we have the following equation.
P = $15.99 - $3.38 - $5.57
P = $12.61 - $5.57
P = $7.04
So her profit is $7.04 per necklace.
(b) Write a fraction of the profit per sale price of the necklace. Record your answer as a fraction using whole numbers.
The raw fraction is 7.04/15.99, to get rid of the decimal point, multiply top and bottom by 100, getting 704/1599.
The prime factors of 704 are 2,2,2,2,2,2,11 and the prime factors of 1599 are 3,13,41. Since neither 704, nor 1599 share any common factors, the fraction can't be reduced and the final answer is 704/1599.
(c) What decimal of every dollar of the sale price of the necklace is profit using the fraction from Part (b)?
Pardon the lack of formatting
704/1599 = 0.4403
Rounded to the nearest hundredth gives 0.44
(d) Lucy collected $223.86 selling necklaces at a craft fair. How many necklaces did Lucy sell? Show your work.
This question is asking for total cost. So divide the $223.86 by the sale price of $15.99.
$223.86 / $15.99 = 14
14 necklaces were sold.
(e) How much profit did she earn from the number of necklaces she sold? Show your work.
Since we know from (a) that she has $7.04 profit per necklace, just multiply the amount of profit by the number sold. So
$7.04 * 14 = $98.56</span>
